#Privacy #AI #Cybersecurity #DailyDigest

The European Parliament has published a briefing on the ethical dimensions of AI in classrooms (PE 784.573, March 2026), authored by Prof. Wayne Holmes for the CULT Committee.

The document is strong on the ethical-philosophical plane. But the real challenge lies elsewhere: we don't need more principles — we need operational connections between the principles already formulated, binding rules (GDPR, AI Act) and European competence frameworks (DigComp 3.0, eCF 4.0).

In my latest article, I analyse the briefing from the perspective of a data protection lawyer, focusing on:

— The false dichotomy between ethics and law
— Children as rights-bearing subjects, not objects of optimisation
— The "flipped AI divide" as a matter of substantive equality
— The CEN-CENELEC JTC 21 standard on professional AI ethicists
— The role of DigComp 3.0 and eCF 4.0 in bridging the principles-to-practice gap

Il Parlamento Europeo ha pubblicato un briefing sulle dimensioni etiche dell'IA nelle aule scolastiche (PE 784.573, marzo 2026), redatto dal Prof. Wayne Holmes per la commissione CULT.

Il documento è solido sul piano etico-filosofico. Ma il vero nodo è un altro: non servono nuovi principi — servono connessioni operative tra i principi già formulati, le norme vincolanti (GDPR, AI Act) e i framework europei di competenze (DigComp 3.0, eCF 4.0).

Nel mio ultimo articolo analizzo il briefing dalla prospettiva del giurista specializzato in protezione dei dati, con un focus su:

— La falsa dicotomia tra etica e diritto
— I minori come soggetti di diritto, non oggetti di ottimizzazione
— Il "flipped AI divide" come questione di uguaglianza sostanziale
— Lo standard CEN-CENELEC JTC 21 sugli eticisti professionali dell'IA
— Il ruolo di DigComp 3.0 e eCF 4.0 nel colmare il divario principi-prassi
